  • From Alabama to Wyoming: 50 Counts of Double Standards -- the Missing Entries in the US Report on Human Rights
    • News Service:038/99 AI INDEX: AMR 51/33/99 EMBARGOED FOR 0001 GMT THURSDAY 25 FEBRUARY From Alabama to Wyoming: 50 counts of double standards -- the missing entries in the US report on human rights On 25 February, the US State Department will publish its annual report on human rights, addressing the unjustified killing or ill-treatment of people by police and other security forces in some 190 countries -- similar incidents in New York, Illinois or California, however, will not be granted a mention “One could very well say that this year, like every other, there will be 50 entries missing from the State Department report: from Alabama to Wyoming,” Amnesty International said, deploring the USA’s hypocritical stance at not recognizing the extent to which human rights abuses are going unchecked in its own territory. “The US government has a selective approach to human rights -- using international human rights standards as a yardstick by which to judge other countries, but consistently failing to apply those same standards at home.” “Furthermore, US government policies often lead to human rights being sacrificed for political, economic and military interests, both in US territory and abroad,” the organization continued. “By providing weapons, security equipment and training to other countries, the USA is responsible for the same abuses it denounces in its State Department report.” According to Amnesty International, when it comes to human rights, the USA discriminates against countries and victims. “The US government often criticizes countries it considers hostile, while ignoring abuses committed by its allies or failing to take action that would run counter to US interests.

    THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published by The State Historical Society of Colorado VO L. V Denver, Colorado, August, 1928 No. 4 Early Years of the Telephone in Colorado By Howard T. Vaille* The telephone came into the world a sickly, puny babe, the strangest creature ever born; it had but a mouth and an ear, with an artery connecting them. The queer child came unheralded and no one but the father cared whether it lived or died. The world said, "It is a freak, let it die," but the fond parent looked far into the future and saw in the little creature the promise of a beneficent giant which should some day perform a great service to mankind. The infant sent its first cry across the dusty attic where it was born. That was lVIarch 10, 1876. Next its voice was heard over the two miles of road from Boston to Cambridge. But could it ever resound in the canyon-like streets and in the lofty build­ ings of a great city; or muster the strength to compass the vast prairies of the IV est and make itself heard at the Golden Gate? IV ould it be wary and forceful enough to elude the mighty and subtle electrical forces, its cousins, which were lying in wait to destroy the life of the young child? There were the lightning, the electrical currents generated by man and the mysterious cur­ rents of nature playing around it; there were the mighty vested telegraph interests, who, as the child grew, saw in it a foe.

  • Water, Capitalism, and Urbanization in the Californias, 1848-1982
    TIJUANDIEGO: WATER, CAPITALISM, AND URBANIZATION IN THE CALIFORNIAS, 1848-1982 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Hillar Yllo Schwertner, M.A. Washington, D.C. August 14, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Hillar Yllo Schwertner All Rights Reserved ii TIJUANDIEGO: WATER, CAPITALISM, AND URBANIZATION IN THE CALIFORNIAS, 1848-1982 Hillar Yllo Schwertner, M.A. Dissertation Advisor: John Tutino, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This is a history of Tijuandiego—the transnational metropolis set at the intersection of the United States, Mexico, and the Pacific World. Separately, Tijuana and San Diego constitute distinct but important urban centers in their respective nation-states. Taken as a whole, Tijuandiego represents the southwestern hinge of North America. It is the continental crossroads of cultures, economies, and environments—all in a single, physical location. In other words, Tijuandiego represents a new urban frontier; a space where the abstractions of the nation-state are manifested—and tested—on the ground. In this dissertation, I adopt a transnational approach to Tijuandiego’s water history, not simply to tell “both sides” of the story, but to demonstrate that neither side can be understood in the absence of the other. I argue that the drawing of the international boundary in 1848 established an imbalanced political ecology that favored San Diego and the United States over Tijuana and Mexico. The land and water resources wrested by the United States gave it tremendous geographical and ecological advantages over its reeling southern neighbor, advantages which would be used to strengthen U.S.

  • States and Localities That Have Raised the Tobacco Sale Age to 21
    STATES AND LOCALITIES THAT HAVE RAISED THE MINIMUM LEGAL SALE AGE FOR TOBACCO PRODUCTS TO 21 On December 20, 2019, President Trump signed legislation to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and raise the federal minimum age of sale of tobacco products from 18 to 21 years, effective immediately. Prior to the federal increase, nineteen states – Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and Washington – had raised the tobacco age to 21, along with Washington, DC and at least 540 localities, covering over half of the US population. Subsequent to the federal age of sale increase, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee and Wyoming have raised their tobacco age to 21.The strength of state and local laws, such as their enforcement and penalties, varies substantially. States States listed in order of effective date. States in bold passed their legislation prior to the federal minimum age of sale increase.
